cyclists, and the chagrin of many more motorists. so now, on the 24th anniversary of what has been accomplished? >> they started helping all of us think about how to use the streets. >> the supervisor says that san fransisco has stated attention to the critical mass message, bicycling has grown 71% from 2006 to last year, according to a report. and the website reach the city tied with portland as that accept second most bicycle friendly city in the country .. >> we make strides as far as bike lanes and more bike safety measures, expanded bicycle parking, we have a long way to go but this all started with what happened two decades ago. >> on valencia at the welcome center for the event today, bicyclist from all over the world are checking in, some are long time critical mass riders and tell me the city has come a
6:01 pm
long way but i could get more bicycles and lake, as for whether that message has been heard? >> it is interesting because i think that critical mass is not driving any one particular message around how to improve the city, it is really an awareness statements of " your real art, we're taking up this amount of space with as many cycles to show you that we exist ". i would not say that we have any goals that we want to achieve. >> when it first presented itself there was a lot confrontation. >> yes there was. mad motorists have occasionally tried to run down the bicyclist. bicyclist have also attacked motorists including a redwood city lady, just driving through with her kids. >> a lot of people suggested that it could be stopped and i think that clearly it has been demonstrated that the better way to handle it is to facilitate it and keep it moving. i think that the organizers of critical mass, that suits them as well. >> they are waiting for the signal, it should happen within the next half-hour, and when the
6:02 pm
ride begins, it will randomly drive through the streets of san francisco, taking a weird last year and a strained right here, against traffic perhaps circling around union square as is their tradition. they will probably go for several hours tonight as this crowd is much larger than have seen for quite some time and there will be a big party. >> a big friday night. if i remember, in 2009, you looked into the cost involved here and by that i mean what san fransisco tazed by way of police escorts and things like that? >> that is right, actually went for a ride, i put on the helmet can and drove with these people through the streets and what you see is that they had a police escort, we do not see the cops right now but there are police officers on motorcycle that ride everywhere along the way with them, they shall know them through the streets, perhaps breaking up fights before they began. what we found was that the cost was about $155,000 at the time, not just for the police escort but also for the fees that they
6:03 pm
don't pay, in order to have a big celebration like this. i should mention, i got feedback today from the organizers here that are still mad about the story we did. they thought it was absolutely, as they put it, " irresponsible journalism " to even challenge them on this and that is why you see politicians saying " we will just take a political hit that comes with shadowing them rather than confronting them ". >> that money, that was how much it cost up to that point? not for ride? >> per year, for the escort that they have. exactly. for the record, most of these people are out here to have a good time, and yes there breaking traffic laws, of course. but they are mostly having a good time, not trying to start fights. it has calmed down in recent years in fact. >> they're getting older, more mature maybe? >> maybe so, or maybe it sent a message to the people among them

ft. structure spanning the rail lines of monterey highway linking neighborhoods and schools and a shopping center. his mother nicole wilson said that she could feel her son's presence as she walked across the bridge for the first time. >> it is an honor and knowing that my son was never forgotten. i know now that he mattered. thank you for keeping his spirit alive. now he is living on through this bridge. i know that he is going to die each and everyone across to the other side. >> his mother said that it was tough to come back, it is the first time the family has returned to the area since the tragedy, they now live in fresno. neighbors say that this is long overdue and there have been other people killed on this track. but one of the main components of this bridge is not even on the bridge, it is that fence that you see there that was erected as part of this project, to keep people from crossing on
6:09 pm
to those tracks at grade level but since we have been here the last few hours, we have seen one guy go over the fence, and another guy slip underneath. some people still, despite the fact that $10 million was spent to build the bridge and make things safer, people still want to cross as quickly as the tent and sometimes that means going under the fence to go across those tracks. >> let's hope most people have better sense than that. thank you. >> that is a problem, considering he left his neighbors with this ... a sliding hillside. how they may finally get some relief from this mass of an eyesore? >> probably the most expensive photograph that you will ever appear in, but there are changes coming, new rules for the california red light cameras. >> the picture outside is pretty gloomy. lots of cloud cover near the bay and centers struggling to make it out of the '60s. so why are we talking about,,,,,

animals and found no evidence of safety concerns for any of the genetically modified crops on the marketplace. >> so all the clans that this causes cancer and alzheimer's? there's no scientific evidence of that? >> i have found no evidence of food safety problems. >> whether they're safe may not be the debate for proposition 37. supporters say that they have a right to know what is in their food. and say that manufacturers should respect that wish. so far it looks like it has a lot of support. in a new poll, 61 percent of registered voters say that they will vote yes on proposition 37. 25 percent say that they were opposed and 14% say that they are still undecided. but here is it possible down side, supporters say that they want to know what is in their food but because manufacturers don't want to get sued, they could start labeling everything with the symbol justing case, whether it has it or not. that would defeat the whole purpose of this initiative.
